With a clean sweep by candidates endorsed by Zohran Mamdani and Bernie Sanders in New York City's primaries last week, one would think Democrats would be thrilled by the progressive momentum behind their party. Not so fast. Already, at least twelve self-described "moderate Democrats" have signed on to push back against the Democratic socialist wing of the party, with New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani emerging as its de facto leader.
